mira-lani,
please have tina email me verifying that she understands her role as monitor, and that she is going to monitor your visit with harriet and theodore on sunday, june 28th, and that she will be present and monitoring for the whole time.
if this is not possible, there are professional monitors and neutral monitoring sites available.
also, harriet and theodore have not returned on time from their visits for the last two weeks, in fact, they have been well over an hour late both times. please try to make every effort to have them home on time.

Hi Harold,
I want to let you know that I have always stayed the entire time during our visits with Lani and the children. I do not know what my ‘role as a monitor’ is exactly. No one has ever explained it to me. Since you Cc your lawyer, I am confused because I have no idea if you’re placing some legal responsibility or liability on me? What does this all mean? I am not a professional monitor. I really have no idea what is expected of me. I want to bring my children over to play with Lani, Harriet & Theo & have a fun day. Also, I want to help Lani see her children.
Best,
Tina
On Saturday, June 27th, 2009 at 1:53 a.m., Mr. Abramowitz emailed Tina and Mrs. Abramowitz, and cc’d his attorney, Charles Ver Hoeve:
hi tina,
thanks for the message.
that is sufficient for me, and harriet and theodore will be ready at 1:00 pm.
also, please be aware that i have no power to place you under any legal responsibility or liability. i am cc-ing my attorney on these messages because they pertain [sic] the ongoing legal situation that all of us are in.

harold

Hi Harold:
Yesterday we had fun. Sorry I was a little late but I didn’t have my cell phone and it is impossible to find a pay phone. I have a request: I would like to suggest you consider allowing Mira-Lani to take the kids every other weekend from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon, at least try it for the summer. It would be wonderful summer fun for the kids. Mira-Lani would love to take them to swim, parks, museums, and other fun activities. I’m sorry if I am being too intrusive but I feel it is necessary that I ask you for the benefit of Mira-Lani & the kids. They really need to see each other more often. I understand you are involved in litigation but I hope you will consider my suggestions. Please, the children really need to see their mother more often. Mira-Lani needs to see them too. Please, try it for the summer. It might work out to be great for everyone.
With Best Wishes,
Tina
On Monday, June 29th, 2009 at 10:12 a.m., Mr. Abramowitz emailed Tina, and cc’d Mrs. Abramowitz and, his attorney, Charles Ver Hoeve:
hi tina,
while i certainly appreciate your concern, please be advised that mira-lani's custody situation was determined by the court and not by me. i did not in any way request or express a desire for the current custody situation to be the way it is. in fact, your message would be best directed to mira-lani, being that she is the one who needs to take action to make the situation better by complying with what the court, not me, is asking her to do. please remember that harriet, theodore, and me [sic] have all been seriously affected by mira-lani's refusal to comply, thus, maybe you, as mira-lani's friend, can encourage her to do what needs to be done to improve the situation.
best,
harold
